A wonderful day. That’s all.

What a wonderful Saturday. I had one of my best friends staying over night and we just enjoyed the day. Even though it was Saturday we woke up as early as 7 am and decided we wanted to start the day.

The older I get, the more of a morning person I become. I don’t like sleeping through half the day, instead I want to make the most of it.

We had a long breakfast chatting away about just about everything, as friends do, while the morning was waking up turning into a bright sunny day with a clear blue sky. I was filled with a wonderful sense of spring. A warm feeling inside from the sunlight, that we are so deprived of at this time of the year.

We decided to make some coffee and tea in a thermos and take the car to the water in Elfvik to enjoy the weather.

Only this time of the year the weather is playing tricks with us. It looks warm and springlike from inside. But by the water a heavy northern cold wind was beating us and the water. Brr it was so cold. However we found a spot on the rocky shoreline where the wind didn’t catch us. It was lovely! The sun sparkled energetically, strong and blinding, in the water. As a company we had a swan family swimming around just near us. It was so relaxing – a cup of tea never tastes so good as it does from a thermos cup on a rock a windy day by the sea.

After this we did some shopping and ”fika” in Täby Centrum before we had some more ”fika” at my friend’s place. We love our fikas! We usually do it several times a day when we meet.

I came back home around 8-ish pm and watched Melodifestivalen (Swedish preselection for Eurovision Song Contest) and fell asleep halfway through so I had to look up who made through in the papers. I didn’t miss much.

After this lovely Saturday I still feel energised. It doesn’t take much!

Now I am curious about your weekend. 🙂 And what do you do to feel energised?

It seems to have been a nice week-end. My week-end on the contrary was uneventful. I had a bit of headache Saturday and didn’t do anything. Sunday was a very sunny day and I thought it would be good to get some sun and went for a walk in the fields nearby. But the fields are agricultural fields, so you don’t see much besides greenhouses and a few gardens. The quality of your photos is really great. Seeing it you can feel for a moment as if you were there. You almost feel every movement of the water and the intensity of the colours….

It was indeed. 🙂 Uneventful weekends are nice too sometimes. I am not that kind of person who needs something to do all the time – I am perfectly happy with a relaxing weekend doing nothing and just stay at home. And since you had a headache I’d say an uneventful weekend was exactly what you needed. Thanks for your kind words on the photos. These to me are more of ”situation” photos than ”Photography!”. 🙂 I wanted to remember the swans passing us by!
